No... you are not seeing double...I wanted to play with my new printer that I got for Christmas and also wanted to do the sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesdays and since the sponsor this week is A Day For Daisies. I do not have many images from ADFD, so this one was one that fit the sketch( I know I don't have to use the sponsor image, I just like too). Did I mention my new printer? It is wonderful and wireless! Thank you Mom and Dad Dronchi I love it.

For this card: The Dp are all digi papers from Sherri K design. The image is from A Day For Daisies, and the sentiment is from SU. I used Copics for coloring and glitter on this little one's hair. Hope you are doing well this afternoon.

Just popping in to remind you that the open house is still going on over at The Crafters Cafe.

Here is I card I made for the challenge sponsored by A Day for Daisies ( challenge will start on 12-31). I used lots of glitter on this little mermaid her 3 friends are just adorable.

I made this card for a soccer friend of my daughters, she had eye surgery this month and I thought this would cheer her up. Come to find out She was up and going the very next day. So happy for her! I am going to try and get a few more posts before the new year. See you soon.

I have a little story to go with this card. For the last month, One of the girls at work had the cutest little post it note package on her desk. It has little polka dots on the side and this great bright green ribbon that had the cutest bell on it. I asked her If I could please have the ribbon with the bell and she said yes!

Here is the card that I saw when I first layed my eyes on this little bright green ribbon and cute little bell. To thank the person who let me have the cute little ribbon, I gave her the finished card. Let me know what you think. Thanks for stopping by

It is Saturday and we have a really fun challenge for you at Sugar Creek Hollow this week. We want to see a vintage, shabby chic or primitive card or other paper-crafted project that features a RECIPE CARD. The recipe card can be shown either on the front or inside your project and the recipe itself should be a family favorite that has been passed down over the years.

Here is my card and below is the how the finished product looks.

I made a double batch this Wednesday and The kids have been having it for breakfast and for a snack after school. We have just a small amount left from a double batch. IF you have any questions about the recipe please feel free to email me.

Above are the noodles or Spaetzels

Here is a photo of the Basket of sieve that is used to make the spaetzels.

If your recipe isn't easily read from the photo of your project, then we would ask that you detail it in your post. It would also be great if you could show a photo of the finished recipe. Your recipe can be of any type and we would love to hear the story behind it. Soon your family's favorite could become someone else's family favorite so thanks for sharing.

This week one random winner will receive a digi of our choice and a winner's badge to display. In addition, the Design Team will choose one project as Card of the Week and the creator will receive a badge and will be in the running for a Guest Designer spot.

Don't forget, we also have Christmas Blog Candy for one lucky winner to be chosen from our challenge entries between now and Christmas Eve.

Our designers have shared some wonderful recipes so click on their name to be taken directly to their blog where you will find many more details about their recipe and their project.
